Eco hotel is a hotel or accommodation that has made important environmental improvements to its structure in order to minimize its impact on the environment. The basic definition of a hotel is an environmentally responsible lodging that follows the practices of green living. These hotels have to be certified green by an independent third-party or by the state they are located in. Traditionally, these hotels were mostly presented as Eco Lodges because of their location, often in jungles, and their design inspired by the use of traditional building methods applied by skilled local craftsmen in areas, such as Costa Rica and Indonesia. Today, eco hotels also include properties in less "natural" locations that have invested in improving their "green" credentials. ==Criteria== An eco hotel must usually meet the following criteria (): * Dependence on the natural environment * Ecological sustainability * Proven contribution to conservation * Provision of environmental training programs * Incorporation of cultural considerations * Provision of an economic return to the local community 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「eco hotel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
